Mark Zuckerberg announces a new WhatsApp feature which allows to transfer all chats between Android and iOS. He also noted that this was a top requested feature.
Up until recently, data transfer only worked one way – one would lose all saved data, when switching from Android to iOS. At the same time, data transfer from iOS to Android was introduced about a year ago.

🤓 “Greater-fool Theory” //
Billionaire Bill Gates dismissed cryptocurrency projects such as nonfungible tokens as shams “based on the greater-fool theory” at a climate conference Tuesday, reviving past criticisms of digital assets.
“Obviously, expensive digital images of monkeys are going to improve the world immensely,” said Bill Gates.
Mr Gates is a renowned crypto sceptic. Last year, he sparred with Elon Musk over whether Bitcoin is too risky for retail investors and the environmental harm of mining coins. The billionaire has also supported digital banking efforts, which he described as “hundreds of times more efficient” than cryptocurrencies.
